    Help me pick the best RSC/safe for my situation

    Thanks Heeler - the problem is that it has to be 24" wide max external in order to fit into the right space. I have seen the Defender and even called Ft Knox to see how much it would be to make a custom size, they said they can't go under 26". I want my defensive tools with me in my safe...

    Help me pick the best RSC/safe for my situation

    All: I'm in the market for a gun safe or RSC and could use your help in selecting one that fits my limitations/parameters (below). Before I dive into what I want out of the safe/RSC, I want it to be clear that I have read the multiple postings by CB900F and a1abdj and I am familiar with the...

    CC Holster for the new Ruger LCP

    My wife uses something like this for her LCP and it works very well: http://shopruger.com/images/50090-L.jpg Except hers has the sticky backing all over the outside of the holster. She used it in a Defensive Pistol class and it held fast to the inside of the pocket while the gun came free...

    Have you ever given up on a gun friend?

    I think that's the case, mljdeckard. I am not going to pile on here, and I think I know what you're getting at in your OP. Your friend just seems to have different priorities from you. It could also be that he's just not very motivated about do anything about anything. I don't know, and...

    Recommend a gun shop in Portland, OR that cater to females?

    OK sweet. In that case GunBroker is a good place, but if she knows what she does & doesn't like and is willing to go during slower hours, Keith's may be a good option because it has a wide(r) selection. Sportsman's does too, but the guys at Sportsmens are ... nice but a tad Fudd-ish.

    Recommend a gun shop in Portland, OR that cater to females?

    mwsfarm I take it from your post that your sister is new to guns, yes? If so may I recommend that she not buy a gun right away? If she is new to guns then what she needs is a good basic one day training class which will teach her safety, and expose her to the MANY different gun types...

    FN Self Loading Police (SLP) / X2 question

    You might want to check out the forums at brianenos.com, under the 3-gun/shotgun section. The SLP is becoming a popular gun for new 3-gunners and there are several threads about it there. HTH

    LOL, Obama pulls anti gun page from website

    I hope this was a result of Tom's show and not just a planned change or outage. And if it is a result of hits due to Tom's show, to me it shows that we have them scared. Time to press our advantage, before he even takes office.

    Chuck Taylor on Competition.

    Chuck Taylor IS a world class shooter and a fine instructor (as others have told me). But I do think his statement is a bit of a broad-brush. For my 10+ years of "serious" gun activity, I have participated in IDPA and other events, but looked down on them as "not real" and cautious that doing...

    Any Eugene, Oregon shooters?

    Also check out arfcomm's hometown forum, though many of us have migrated from there to another site. Still arfcomm is a good place to hook up with other local shooters.

    i don't compete in 3gun competition because...

    I voted "other" but in reality I don't shoot our local one because it requires a Pistol Caliber Carbine, which I do not own. I have shot it before and do enjoy it, but financial priorities dictate that buying a PCC is way, way down the list. I may borrow friends' guns but that gets old after...
